Chapter 2529

“Indeed.” Peter nodded. “I came for Spencer’s wedding. I must witness their big day before I return.”

Icyln’s smile froze as her heart sank. She was feeling so miserable that it became difficult for her to even breathe.

“Mr. Lincoln, I’ve taken some time off for two days. Let me take you around San Joto,” Spencer said as it got quiet all of a sudden.

“That’s great. I took some time off to spend time with Mr. Lincoln too. Let’s do it together.” Icyln beamed out of excitement as she brushed her feelings aside.

“Well, the two of you go ahead. I still have some work to tend to,” Lulu interjected, feeling guilty as she looked at Peter. “Mr. Lincoln? Please allow Spencer to accompany you during the day. I’ll treat you to dinner.”

“Don’t worry about it. You young people should prioritize your work.” Peter then turned to Spencer and Icyln. “The same goes to the both of you. Don’t put your work on hold because of me.”

“It’s fine. We’re not performing anytime soon. Besides, you hardly ever visit us, Mr. Lincoln. We should really stroll around San Joto. You must be happy having both Spencer and I keeping you company, huh?”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Lincoln. I’ve already made arrangements to my schedule,” Spencer chimed in.

Hearing that, Peter responded, “Fine, but don’t let your schedule be affected because of me.”

“Well, accompanying you is our top priority now,” Icyln said as she wrapped her arm around Mr.

Lincoln’s and swung it playfully.

“Haha, alright. Thank you.” Peter laughed heartily.

In the afternoon, the sun was scorching, making everyone feel a little drowsy. Nicole, in particular, was sitting on the couch, seemingly lost in thought.

Suddenly, someone pushed the door open, prompting Nicole to look up in surprise. “Why are you back?”

“Long story.” Lulu sighed and sat down next to Nicole with an evident look of frustration on her face.

Nicole blinked in confusion. “What’s up? Spencer’s teacher wasn’t around?”

“Nah, it’s just that Icyln was there too,” Lulu said, her voice brimming with frustration.

She then went on to explain how Icyln had acted throughout the day, subtly poking fun at her at every opportunity.

Once the story was over, Nicole shook her head in amusement. “Is she a three-year-old?”

‘She’s so childish! Does she really think she’s doing something?’ Nicole thought.

“Who knows?” Lulu replied. “She’s making everyone uncomfortable. It’s like she’s the only one who isn’t embarrassed by whatever the hell it is she is doing.”

“Well, did it go smoothly? You know, picking their teacher up and everything.” Nicole asked, not worried about Icyln.

“All good. Besides, their teacher likes me.” Lulu smiled.

At least I had that going for me,’ Lulu thought.

“That’s good to hear. Otherwise, you’d be under a lot of pressure,” Nicole remarked.

She could imagine how upset Lulu would be if their teacher did not like her, considering how much Spencer respected him. That was why Lulu wanted the teacher’s approval.

“Exactly. I figured it’s going to be extremely boring there, and I didn’t want to watch Icyln’s revolting show of shoe-shining. That’s why I came back,” Lulu said, shrugging her shoulders.

She felt more comfortable being back here at the office, and she believed that Peter would be fine with Spencer and Icyln around him.

“Sounds good. Let Spencer deal with the headache of Icyln’s lousy acting. After all, he’s the one who brought this blight of a person upon himself,” Nicole commented.

‘Icyln’s behavior is truly distasteful,’ she thought as she cringed.
